You mentioned, Your Eminence, that people do not benefit from lineages.

0:07

And Allah said in His Book: "We shall join their offspring with them."

0:12

In another verse: "And the righteous among their fathers, wives, and children."

0:16

So how do we reconcile the verses?

0:19

You asked a good question.

0:21

What is meant is what we said in the lesson.

0:24

And the discussion was about lineages on the Day of Resurrection.

0:32

At the time of questioning. As for whoever was righteous in life.

0:39

And his offspring followed him in righteousness.

0:46

He has done what leads to entering Paradise.

0:52

And his offspring have done what leads to entering Paradise.

0:57

So Allah ﷻ favors them by His grace.

1:01

by raising the lower to the higher rank, so they may be together in Paradise.

1:11

And that will be.

1:13

As an honor from Allah to them in Paradise.

1:21

So their lineage does not get them into Paradise.

1:25

However.

1:27

But since the parents were righteous in this world.

1:32

And the offspring were virtuous in this world and entered Paradise.

1:38

Then Allah honors them by raising the lower to the rank of the higher.

1:46

So that this may perfect their joy in the Garden of the Lord of the worlds.

1:51

I ask Allah by His Most Beautiful Names and Lofty Attributes.

1:55

to make us all among its people, and not deprive any of us.

2:00

Yes.
